"Friday" magazine paid 300 million yuan in compensation to Li Wei, and at the same time published an apology notice on the front pages of major daily newspapers across the country, and the editor-in-chief's speech in the latest issue of "Friday" will be changed to the magazine's apology to Li Wei; Will pay 100 million compensation to Li Wei, and at the same time publish an apology notice on the front pages of major daily newspapers across the country; Gao Feng will pay 50 compensation to Li Wei, and publish an apology notice on Friday; million compensation.At the same time, the criminal sentences related to these people have also come down. Mai Dou was sentenced to one year in prison (drug|drug|trafficking|drugs separately), Gao Feng was sentenced to six months of criminal detention with a one-year reprieve, and Zeng Ting was sentenced to six months in prison. months.Except for Gao Feng, both Mai Dou and Zeng Ting appealed.But for Li Wei, the case is basically over.

Just when the media released the latest judgment of this case, "Huaxia Report" also went public.Although the interview about Li Wei was a bit dated, the reporter raised a very sharp question in the interview, which was the pair of underwear in Zeng Ting's hand.After all, a woman has other men's underwear in her hand, so it's more or less peachy inside, right?But Li Wei smiled and said that the owner of the underwear was his assistant Li Ke, and he also showed the records of his and Li Ke's report at the time, so this also filled in the last doubt for the whole fraud topic.

Li Wei watched the new issue of "Huaxia Report" with great joy, because in addition to the interview about the defamation case, the reporter also asked many stories about Li Wei's past growth.After all, readers are still very interested in what Li Wei's life was like before becoming a trainee, and what Li Wei was like during the five years in Xuezang.

Li Wei's birth was actually quite tragic. Before Li Wei was one year old, he became an orphan because of a car accident.Li Wei's performance in the orphanage is not bad, but readers don't think the orphanage is such a beautiful place.Many sentimental readers have figured out that they don't have enough to eat, don't wear enough clothes, and don't have the love of their parents and family members. It's no wonder that now Li Wei always treats the camera with a cold face. This is the self-protection of lack of love since childhood.

During the snow storage period, although he was supported by a scholarship, Li Wei still needed to work two jobs to make ends meet.After all, as an art student, the expenses are very huge.At that time, Li Wei was just a boy of [-] or [-] years old, alone and helpless, so Li Wei became the "other people's child" in many families.Many parents of the study abroad party have used Li Wei as an example to educate their children. Why do you need so much living expenses?Look at Li Wei, he works two jobs and still gets a scholarship!Why did we let you have no worries about food and clothing, but you couldn't even get a bachelor's degree?Look at Li Wei, he has a double doctorate!

And Li Wei's internship unit is also very high-end, what kind of assistant editor-in-chief of "VOGUE" magazine!What an assistant director of MGM Pictures!What CBS production company screenwriter assistant!Then people also wrote articles for "theAtlantic", "TheNewYorker", "TheNewYorkReviewofBooks" and "Harper'sMagazine"!Not only that, but he also acted in a stage play on Broadway and worked as a photographer at New York Fashion Week...

And every internship of Li Wei is well-documented, and the readers are even more admirable after checking it out.With the release of the "China Report", Li Wei's popularity has risen again, and almost all of the comments are positive. Li Wei has become the "highest quality idol" in the eyes of the media.

"Literary World", "Writer and Art Spring and Autumn", "Writer" and "New Trend" are known as the four kings of Chinese literary magazines, monopolizing two-thirds of the circulation of domestic literary magazines.

"Writer" is a publication sponsored by the Huaxia Writers Association. It is the most senior and conservative among literary magazines, but it is also the magazine that all writers look forward to publishing the most; "Literary World" is a magazine sponsored by the Yanjing Writers Association. Ranked second, its novel style presents a very strong "Beijing flavor", which belongs to the literary temple in the minds of northern authors; "New Tide" is jointly sponsored by the Donghai Writers Association, Nanhua Writers Association and Beidao Writers Association. It is to fight against the retroism in "Beijing-flavored" novels, and especially welcomes avant-garde and exploratory literary works; "Literary Spring and Autumn" is the only purely commercial literary magazine among the four major literature magazines, run by the first generation of nationals Founded by the great writer Lu Ren, it is currently published by the "Wenyi Chunqiu" magazine and published by Wenyi Chunqiu Publishing House of the Asian Publishing Group.

Although "Literary Spring and Autumn" is an alternative among the four major periodicals, it is indeed the only literary monthly among the four major periodicals (the rest are bimonthly), and its thickness is almost twice that of other literary magazines.At the same time, because of the bi-annual "Sprouting Literature Award", a special issue will be launched to publish the award-winning articles and other important nominated articles.The Budding Literature Award is an award for new writers of pure literature sponsored by "The Spring and Autumn Period of Literature". It is held twice a year, divided into spring awards and autumn awards.The winner will receive a prize of 10 yuan and a gold pen.In addition to the Budding Literature Award, "Literary Spring and Autumn" also has the Orchid Literature Award for young and middle-aged authors.The Orchid Literary Award is held only once a year. There are three awards for novels, short stories, and drama, poetry, and prose.

And now Li Wei and Su Li are appearing at the magazine "Literary Spring and Autumn" on the 11th floor of the Asia Publishing Building. The editor Fu Haifeng is in charge of receiving them.Fu Haifeng didn't care when he got Li Wei's novel "After Class Murder on Campus". After all, there are a lot of manuscripts submitted to the magazine "Wenyi Chunqiu" every day. Although "Wenyichunqiu" is the most thick in the country, After all, the layout is limited, and novels, novellas, short stories, poems, essays, screenplays and literary reviews have to be taken care of.

Yes, "Literary Spring and Autumn" has always been known as the "inclusiveness" of the four major journals.The editors don't have a unified preference, so the authors of "Wenyichunqiu" have a variety of styles.But after Fu Haifeng read it through, he had to admit that "The Incident of Campus Murder After Class" is one of the outstanding ones among newcomers.If it is placed in a professional mystery magazine, such as "Mystery World", "Selected Suspense Fiction", "Detective Literature Bimonthly" and other magazines, I am afraid that it should be recommended?Fu Haifeng couldn't hold it anymore, so he specially invited the author to come and have a chat.On the one hand, Fu Haifeng wanted to know whether the author was a flash in the pan, or whether he had plans for follow-up creation;

Due to the huge number of submissions to "The Spring and Autumn Period of Literature and Art", there are still some regrets after the selection of the best. All the magazines also set up a bimonthly "The Spring and Autumn Period of Literature" to publish the regrets of the pearls; There are three affiliated magazines, including "Pure Literature" monthly magazine and "Spring and Autumn Novels Monthly" for long-form serial novels.Although these three affiliated magazines are not as famous as "Literary Spring and Autumn", they are also the leading group of second-tier literary magazines in China.According to Fu Haifeng's idea, this "Campus Murder after Class" is more than enough to be published in "Spring and Autumn Novel Monthly", and it can even arrange a good cover recommendation.When Fu Haifeng was calculating in the reception room, the front desk had already brought Li Wei and Su Li in.

After the two sides exchanged pleasantries for a while, Fu Haifeng asked: "I never thought that Mr. Li Wei is so young, but his writing style is very sophisticated. Has any work been published before?" Fu Haifeng wanted to confirm Li Wei's resume in literary creation , after all, as a person in the literary circle, he would not care about the entertainment circle.At the same time, with a person's literary resume, experienced editors can tell whether his works are original, ghostwritten, or plagiarized.

"When I was studying in the United States, I published works in The Atlantic, The New Yorker, The New York Review of Books and Harper's Magazine, but most of them were in English." Li Wei described his works "In addition, I have also published some essays and essays in Chinese newspapers such as "Qiao Bao", "Chinese Literature and Art" and "Oriental Literature."

Looking at the thick stack of submissions, Fu Haifeng finally knew that the person in front of him was really not a rookie in the literary world.On the contrary, Fu Haifeng was a little jealous of the young man in front of him.Although "The Atlantic" and "The New Yorker" are English-language magazines, their international reputation is no less than that of "Literary Spring and Autumn".

At the same time, it is extremely difficult to write in a non-native language, and it is not a simple process of Chinese-English translation.It can be said that even if an English undergraduate student in the United States has learned Chinese, passed the Chinese International Test and obtained the highest professional first-class qualification, his writing ability is equivalent to the average level of Huaxia High School students. The passing grade is just above the mark.The reverse is also true, and the level of "The Atlantic Monthly" and "The New Yorker" is the level of professional English writers. From this, we can imagine how far Li Wei's mastery of English has reached.

""The After School Murder Incident" has reached the publication standard of our agency, but I need to explain that if it is published in "Literary Spring and Autumn", it is very likely that it will not get any cover recommendation; but if it is published in For our affiliated sub-journal "Fiction Monthly", there will be recommended resources for the cover. In addition, since Mr. Li is still a newcomer in China, our remuneration is 300 yuan per thousand characters. , plus this part of the remuneration. Within six months after the novel is finished, Mr. Li is not allowed to transfer this novel to other print media or online media without the authorization of our agency. Finally, he must own 10% of the derivative income of this novel, such as film and television adaptations. What do you think?" Fu Haifeng asked.

"I hope to publish it on "Literary Spring and Autumn", and the remuneration and exclusive protection period are fine. However, I don't plan to share the derived copyright income with you." Li Wei refused without hesitation, "I have my own entertainment company, I will shoot my own works in the future, so I will not give up film and television adaptations, game adaptations, animation adaptations and sound copyrights."

"Then let's take a step back." Fu Haifeng actually didn't have that much interest in derivative copyrights, it was just the magazine's request, so he mentioned it casually.Fu Haifeng didn't think that Li Wei would become a best-selling author and his work would become a popular IP, so he suggested, "The remuneration is 200 per thousand characters, and the priority of booklets and library editions will be changed to exclusive publishing rights, and the remuneration should not be lower than works of the same grade."

"Okay, I promise you." Compared with the income from physical publishing, Li Wei pays more attention to the income after IP development.

Su Li, on the other hand, looked at Li Wei suspiciously, wondering when did we set up a film and television production company?That's expensive!
